Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon L31 is 22g lighter than the Nikon L24 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither Nikon Coolpix L31 nor Nikon Coolpix L24 provides any type of weather sealing in their body, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections: Top Compact Cameras with Weather Sealing
LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon L24's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Nikon L31's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
